Beth Cod had established a family base on the surface. Castle Ugarte had disappeared with the crash of Babylon, and the base that had been established in Area 13 on the surface was where Beth Cod's base camp was located.
Due to the legends created by Horn and Allen, the Bescot family's reputation in the Federation soared. Many small clans chose to pay accordingly, and countless mercenaries and wandering warriors on the surface also joined this clan. For a time, Bescot rapidly grew stronger. Judging from the number of troops in the clan, it was already not far from the three great clans of the past.
The flying car drove on a mountain road. Bescot's family base was built on this high ground. Sitting in the car, the wind blew Allen's silver hair.
On the other side of the mountain road, there was a lake at the foot of the mountain. The lake was tranquil and rippleless, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. From the high ground, one could see the outer wall of the base from afar. The outer wall of concrete was more than three meters high, and a sentry tower could be seen at regular intervals. From time to time, airships would pass by in the sky and land in the base. It seemed that this base also had an airship berth. If that was the case, the base should be astonishingly large.
Soon, the flying car arrived at the gate of the base. The gate of the base was a hydraulically powered armor gate. There were armed turrets on both sides of the gate. In front of the gate, there were sentry posts and roadblocks, guarded by a fully armed squad.
When the flying car stopped, a soldier came up to interrogate him. Perhaps because Adele often entered and exited the base, the soldier smiled when he saw her. "Miss Adele, how long have you been away? Why are you back?"
"Of course I came back because I had something to do." Adele smiled.
The soldier had already shouted to the gate, "Open the gate. It's Miss Adele of the Morsons."
The rumbling sound of hydraulic machinery began to ring out from behind the door. The extremely heavy armored door slowly opened, revealing a passageway. When Adele drove in, the soldier noticed Allen. He scratched his hair and said, "Miss Adele brought her boyfriend back?"
After entering the base, there was a straight road. On the left was a plaza, where soldiers were divided into two teams for combat training. In the distance, there was a garage. Allen saw all kinds of tanks parked inside, and there were engineers carrying out their daily maintenance. Behind the garage were buildings of different heights. Inside, Allen saw tall buildings, low anti-aircraft turrets, airship management towers, and so on. Although it was a base, it was undoubtedly a small city, especially when Adele drove along the road inside the base, Allen felt even more so.
"Our Morsen Clan lacks the necessary military support, so Mr. Horn invited Grandpa to move the clan to this base, and Grandpa agreed. Now, as your allies in Bescot, our Morsons are in charge of your family's economy. "Said Adele in the car.
"Other than you, are there any other families?"
"There are quite a few, but those families were all broken up by Mr. Horn and rearranged to various positions. Do you see that over there? That's the living area of the base. Each family is divided into different areas according to the number of people, but in terms of safety management, you Bescot are in charge of it. " Adele pointed ahead, and a gate could be seen in front of the flying car. This gate was just an ordinary black iron gate, with walls extending on both sides. There was a guard post in front of the door, and the guard saw a car coming and walked up. Seeing that it was Adele's childhood, she smiled and let go, and the flying car drove into the living area.
The living area was different from the rest of the base. When he drove into this area, Allen couldn't help but be stunned. On both sides of the road the flying car was paved with green grass. On the left was an oblique wave, which was used to drain water in rainy days. There was an underground drainage channel at the bottom of the slope, which could drain rainwater into a special pipe and directly connect it to the large lake at the foot of the mountain.
Apart from the grass on the right, there were also parasol trees planted. These parasol trees had obviously been planted not long ago, and their branches and leaves were not too lush. However, the lush greenery made people feel relaxed and happy. Adele was now driving on the main road of the living area. Every once in a while, a branch road would extend to the right. On one side of the branch road, there were road signs, indicating which clan's area this branch road would lead to.
At the end of the main road, Allen saw a manor with guards at the gate. Said Adele, "That's where your Bescot family lives."
Entering through the gate of the manor, there was a deep road with lawns and trees on both sides. Women and children could be seen playing on it. This place was filled with the smell of life, and it was difficult to connect it with the base outside.
It was already evening, and the setting sun painted the manor with a layer of golden yellow, warming one's heart. There were many houses in the manor, all of which were uniformly planned three-story buildings. Behind the rows of small buildings, the car flew along the road into a square. Fallen leaves were falling on the square, and workers were cleaning them. After circling a fountain in the square, the flying car stopped in front of a large house. The house had a main building, wing, front, back, and a small square and garden.
This was the residence of the Bescot family. When the flying car stopped, two people walked out of the open door. The one walking in front was as rough as a bear, but it was Bescot's current patriarch, Roddy. The other was the secret warrior, Fordin. The two of them seemed to be talking about something. As he walked down the steps in front of the door, Roddy saw Adele in the flying car and shouted, "Little girl, you haven't been gone for long. Why are you back again? Do you miss your Uncle Roddy?"
Adele smiled but did not say a word. Allen stood up in the car and looked at the bear-like man. The corner of his mouth curled up and he said, "Uncle Roddy, I'm back."
Roddy was stunned at first, and the cigarette in Fuding's mouth fell to the ground. Following that, a storm exploded in front of the door. Roddy directly pounced over, and the flying car was sent flying by the man. Fortunately, Adele and Allen jumped out of the car in time. Otherwise, it would have been very embarrassing.
Roddy didn't care about anything. He hugged Allen and laughed, "It's really you, kid. It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back."
As he smiled, tears streamed down the corner of the man's eyes. Under the setting sun, Roddy cried and laughed, causing the corners of Adele's eyes to moisten. Allen trembled slightly. He could feel the heartfelt joy of this burly man and the kinship of blood that was thicker than water. Even though he had already become a supreme being, he could not give up this kinship no matter what.
"Hey, I say, if you keep hugging him like this, he'll be hugged to death by you." Fuding walked over and shouted.
Roddy said disapprovingly, "How can the men of our Bescot family be hugged to death so easily? Not bad, the kid has grown taller. Oh right, hurry up and follow me. Father will be very happy to see you! "
